(Chip) Lavie, MD, a Cardiologist from the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at the John Ochsner Heart and Vascular Institute, Ochsner Clinical School, and the University of Queensland School of Medicine, in New Orleans, LA, reviews his editorial appearing in the March 2025 issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings, where he reviews the historic and cutting-edge publications on the importance of and life-saving effects that cardiorespiratory fitness has on mortality and longevity in both cardiac and non-cardiac assessments that have appeared in the journal over the past few decades. Dr. Lavie notes increased cardiorespiratory fitness showed particular importance for survival prognosis during the COVID-19 pandemic and that clinicians should consider it as another item among vital signs.
